Bestselling and award-winning author Lisa Unger returns with her best novel yet. Reminiscent of the classic Strangers on a Train, Confessions on the 7:45 is a riveting psychological thriller that begins with a chance encounter on a commuter train and shows why you should never, ever make conversation with strangers.

Be careful who you tell your darkest secrets...

Selena Murphy is commuting home from her job in the city when the train stalls out on the tracks. She strikes up a conversation with a beautiful stranger in the next seat, and their connection is fast and easy. The woman introduces herself as Martha and confesses that she's been stuck in an affair with her boss. Selena, in turn, confesses that she suspects her husband is sleeping with the nanny. When the train arrives at Selena's station, the two women part ways, presumably never to meet again.

But days later, Selena's nanny disappears.

Soon Selena finds her once-perfect life upended. As she is pulled into the mystery of the missing nanny, and as the fractures in her marriage grow deeper, Selena begins to wonder, who was Martha really? But she is hardly prepared for what she'll discover.





Expertly plotted and reminiscent of the timeless classic Strangers on a Train, Confessions on the 7:45 is a stunning web of lies and deceit, and a gripping thriller about the delicate facades we create around our lives.

Confessions on the 7:45Confessions on the 7:45 by Lisa Unger
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Selena Murphy is on her way home from work when the train stops and a passenger, Martha, starts talking to her and confesses that she is having an affair with her boss. Selena suspects her husband is sleeping with the nanny. Then the train starts up again and they are on their way.
Selena confronts her husband and the next thing e know is the nanny disappears.
How Selena stayed with her husband up to this point is beyond me but she did try to make the marriage work.
Selena starts getting txt messages from Martha, which is odd to her.
I really liked this book. Selena is a woman trying to save her marriage for the children's sake.
Martha we start learning about her past and how she got to where she is now. I saw most of it coming. Many twists and turns kept me intrigued.
Thank you to Harlequin and NetGalley for theARC to review.
